Pratibha shoots Mughal invaders
CNN-IBN says :--
The UPA-Left Presidential nominee Pratibha Patil courted controversy on Sunday by saying that the purdah (veil) system emerged in India to protect women from Mughal aggressors.
Patil’s remark, made at a function in Udaipur marking the 467th birth anniversary of Maharana Pratap, has left historians and Muslim social activists astounded.
Patil said though Indian culture always respected women, the veil system began during the Mughal rule to “save women from Mughal invaders”.
“We had the concept of purdah to protect women from Mughal invaders. So, they stayed indoors and were veiled, ” Patil said.
“Today we are citizens of free India. There is need to put a stop to such practices. That alone will ensure real respect for women. When women are progressing in every field, it is our duty to discontinue such practices,” Patil added.

While historians said the veil system was prevalent much before the Mughal invasion, Muslim leaders from Rajasthan are angered and say it's unfortunate Patil chose to incorporate communal views in her address.
Varsha Joshi, a historian at the Institute of Rajasthan Studies said the purdah system existed in India much before the advent of Muslims.
"I think its absolutely wrong to say that the purdah system existed because of the Mughal invaders. It was prevalent before the Mughals came to india," she said.
Joshi also pointed out that there was evidence of the construction of a separate zenana (area for women) in the Chittorgarh fort in the 11th century.
"It would be right to say that the purdah was more an imitation rather than a strategy of defense," the historian said.

Let's see what spin the Congress managers are going to put on Pratibha Patil's observation. It is also likely that Mrs. Patil herself will say she has been misquoted. Or has she said thus to help the Shiv Sena make up its mind? She may next say that Islam brought equality to India, Christianity brought education to India etc., so that all are appeased.
